I had COVID back in May 2021 and was in quarantine. Things were normal until late August when I started having a cold and got treated with antibiotics. After finishing the antibiotics, I noticed this slight pain on the left side of my chest while breathing deeply, as well as pain in my left hand. It's not sharp anymore, just a constant feeling. My chest X-ray came back normal, but the ECG showed Sinus Tachycardia, and sometimes my heart rate spikes. I'm 26, recently quit smoking, and I'm worried if this could be something like COPD or lung cancer. I can hold my breath for over a minute and can exhale in about 15 seconds, so I'm not breathless. But I'm really anxious, my hands and feet get sweaty, and there's this skin issue on my lower foot which makes me think about hyperthyroidism. Could you help me understand what's going on? I'm seriously worried.

I recently had a fever and decided to get an ECG done. The results showed sinus rhythm with sinus arrhythmia. I went back for another ECG the next day, and it came out normal. Should I be concerned about this fluctuation?

I'm dealing with high blood pressure, and it's sometimes reaching 160110. I also recently tested positive for inducible ischemia, and I'm really worried about what this means for my health. Could you please advise what steps I should take next?
It's important to manage your blood pressure to reduce the risk of complications. I recommend starting with lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy weight. In terms of medication, you may benefit from taking an ACE inhibitor like Lisinopril at a starting dose of 10 mg once daily. Additionally, a beta-blocker such as Metoprolol at a starting dose of 25 mg once daily can help with both high blood pressure and ischemia. Please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
